"You're all tired, but don't go home just yet, let's talk to the restaurant. As he spoke, Yu Tianchen took us to fly in the air for a while, and from time to time he looked behind him and said, "Although they know that there are many corpse demons in the city, that restaurant is still very safe, after all, corpse demons are very vigilant, and it is difficult to be followed." ”

"Uh-huh. I nodded busily, I wanted to talk to him more, and I didn't know how to solve Sun Yun's problem, so it was better not to go home, or even to the restaurant...... Suddenly, I felt as if I had forgotten something.

"Dad!" At the door of the restaurant, a small figure quickly jumped into my arms, hugged it and didn't let go, a pair of big eyes looked behind me with a little horror, as if afraid of many people.

"Wang Na?" I wiped my cold sweat violently, this cheap dad was too incompetent, he just adopted someone, and he forgot about it when he turned his face.

"Are you Wang Na's father?" Behind him, there was another exclamation, Yu Tianchen and Qin Lan were stunned, and Yuehua's eyes widened.

"No, no, no. I hurriedly explained the matter in general, but in exchange for even greater consternation.

"You can actually make Wang Na listen to you?" Yu Tianchen's expression was extremely weird, God knows how much effort he spent to barely let Wang Na know how to come to the restaurant to get food, but I have only known each other for a day, and I have only seen each other twice......

This time, even Qin Lan's eyes changed when she looked at me, and she had a little more admiration, and the beautiful Yuehua wanted to hug Wang Na, but she was so frightened that the little girl desperately drilled into my arms, and a few green tendons obviously appeared on the forehead of this beauty, staring at me with a suspicious face.

Actually, I can see that they all love Wang Na very much, and they all have tenderness in their eyes, but it's a pity......

It may be that they have been corpse demons for too long, and they have gradually forgotten the way human emotions are expressed, so their love is too deep in their hearts, and Wang Na is very autistic and can't experience it at all.

Yu Tianchen is a standard cold-faced man with an old-fashioned personality, so although he cares about Wang Na the most, his personality is actually the least suitable for getting along with children, and the beautiful Yuehua is also somewhat similar to him.

As for Qin Lan...... I can see the character of this old man, he is very direct, he thinks you are a genius, he will be kind like your grandfather, think you are not, even the smile will be dry.

I want to say that none of them can hug Wang Na as hard as I did, warm the little guy's heart in the most direct way, heal the trauma over the years, and even, without hesitation, give her a protective response.

Of course, they are also willing to protect, but it is difficult to express it, so Wang Na accepted me easily, but she would rather die with them.

When I said this, Qin Lan and Yuehua both fell into deep thought, and Yu Tianchen patted me on the shoulder and smiled: "Li Yang, you are really good, ha, I really didn't look away, come, let's go in and talk." ”

"That...... My friend!" I couldn't help but glance at Sun Yun, this dick is still dizzy.

"Don't worry, we won't do anything to your friend, but she already knows that we're corpses, so you'll have to figure out a proper solution. Yu Tianchen muttered.

"Hmm!" I nodded vigorously, but that was my biggest trouble tonight.

Walking into the restaurant, Qin Lan immediately took Lin Feng to treatment, this guy was seriously injured, and Sun Yun was carried into a box by me to rest, she was also shot, but fortunately it was only a bruise, and it was fine after the bandage.

"Wang Na will help Dad take care of this aunt, Dad will go and talk a few words, and he will be back soon. I said softly, and the little guy immediately pouted, but nodded obediently.

Tsk, although this little guy's personality is very autistic, as long as he accepts you, he will be well-behaved like a pet doll, which is so cute.

"Li Yang, I know what you're confused about, come, I'll tell you a story first. He got straight to the point, took me to the bar in the restaurant, and poured me another drink.

Of course, it's the kind of specially processed drink.

"Li Yang, have you heard a story? The story of a sheep, ha, this is what my reformer told me, it has been seventy years, and I don't know if it is appropriate to take it out now. ”

"What is it? "I'm curious.

"Well, it was a very unlucky and bitter sheep, because it had been a sheep for eight consecutive lifetimes, and the most unfortunate thing was that it had been eaten by wolves for eight consecutive lifetimes. ”

"Poof...... What a cold joke. I laughed dryly.

Yu Tianchen also smiled and said: "Yes, but the more ridiculous thing is still to come, when it was bitten to death by a wolf for the eighth time and eaten, even the king of Yama thought it was very pathetic, so he decided to give it another way of life, so that it would no longer be a sheep in the ninth reincarnation, but a wolf!"

"However, this is where it really sadly begins......"

Because it is accustomed to being a sheep, it cannot accept the reality of being reincarnated as a wolf, and it wants to live in the flock, but the eyes of those sheep are full of fear and even hatred. ”

"At the same time, it can't accept itself to devour those former companions, so it would rather starve and sit alone in the wilderness waiting for death, Li Yang, you are very similar to this sheep now, so what do you think of it?" asked with a smile.

"It'...... Very kind!" I said through gritted teeth.

"Yes, it is undeniable that it is very kind, so even the king of Yama was moved by it, and forcibly changed its fate in the ninth reincarnation, turning it back into a sheep, and so, it was eaten by wolves again. He Tianchen smiled dryly: "What? Is this joke funny? Do you still think this sheep is very kind? Or do you think it ...... Stupid?"

I lay on the table and was silent for a while, I wanted to laugh, but I couldn't, because I already understood what Tianchen meant.

Actually, as a human being, I have died, and now I am like the sheep, reincarnated as another creature, a wolf, or a corpse demon......

Actually, I also think that this sheep is very stupid, it should not be nostalgic for the past at all, but should accept the reality that it has become a wolf, and even congratulate itself that it does not have to be bitten to death by wolves again.

Just like Yang Bin once said to me, we are not human anymore, we are corpse demons, creatures that stand at the top of the entire food chain, even higher than humans, because human beings eat everything, and we eat people......

It seems that we should be proud, not ashamed.

But...... Maybe I'm stupid, stupid like that sheep, like it can't accept reality, and I understand its sadness that it would rather be lonely than starve to death, and I also understand its insistence that it would rather be eaten by wolves again and want to turn back into a sheep!

"But Li Yang!" Yu Tianchen suddenly interrupted my thoughts and said with a wry smile: "This is always just a story, a joke. ”

Stunned, I smiled bitterly, yes, our life is not a joke, so we can't let King Yama turn us back into sheep, our life is destined to be unchangeable.

Choose, do you recognize your identity as a wolf, or rather be a fool, fantasizing about the past that you can never return to, enduring the loneliness of the wolves and sheep alike, and finally die again!

I don't want to be a fool, but I ......

Ha, this seems to be an old saying, I want to be a bitch and I want to set up an archway.

"Li Yang, let me ask you one more thing, you used to be a very ordinary poor person, right? Hmm...... People nowadays seem to call this identity a dick?" said Tian Tianchen again.

"Well, yes, and I'm a model in dicks, no money, no car, no house, no woman. I scratched my head in embarrassment.

"Ha, then you dicks, do you often scold those rich people behind your back, saying that they are scum, bastards who suck the blood of the poor?"

"Exactly, and it's not good to be scolded for a day!" I nodded vigorously.

"And if one day, someone tells you that your true identity is not a dick, and that he will turn you into that kind of bastard bastard who sucks the blood of poor people, will you accept it?"

"Do you still need to ask?" I pouted, of course I accept it! Isn't this the biggest dream of all dicks? And now TV dramas and movies, including novels and anime, don't all like to use this kind of theme of turning over with dicks? Suddenly, one day a rich dad came to recognize the god......

But as I spoke, I was suddenly stunned, is this different from the story of the sheep? Why can't I accept that I have become a wolf, but I can easily accept it, and even dream of becoming a rich man who sucks the blood of the poor?

No, there is still a difference, although those rich people suck the blood and sweat of the poor, but they are not deadly, and the survival of the corpse demon is based on countless blood, so to put it bluntly, in fact, what I can't accept is not wolves and sheep, but those innocent blood and death!

"Li Yang, what do you think of me?" asked Tian Tianchen suddenly.

"It's very good, although it's cold, but the heart is good, even if it's a corpse demon, it's actually quite kind, at least don't kill innocents indiscriminately. I replied, not a sycophancy, but a heartfelt compliment.

"Thank you for the compliment, this is also the thing I am most proud of, I have been a corpse demon for seventy years, but I have never killed or eaten an innocent human!" said Tian Chen proudly.

"Attention, I'm talking about innocence, I also kill people and eat people, after all, my survival must be maintained by this, but I will deliberately choose the object of killing and devouring!"

"It's the same tonight, even though I defeated the Secret Task Force cadre, I didn't kill her, I didn't kill anyone, did I?"

Seventy years? I have never killed innocent people indiscriminately? I was stunned again, as if I still underestimated the kindness and persistence of this guy Tianchen.

"Of course, not all corpse demons are like me, even Yuehua and Qin Lan sometimes kill indiscriminately when they start a fire, not to mention that some corpse demons will kill people for fun, ha, speaking of which, I am a very strange corpse demon. ”

"And what I want to say is that if Li Yang, if all you are confused about is whether you should kill innocents indiscriminately, then it is completely unnecessary, you can deliberately choose the object of killing and devouring like me. ”

"Actually, there is nothing wrong with being a wolf, at least we have the strength to protect ourselves, not to be eaten by other wolves, and even to protect our companions, such as Wang Na, such as your girl friend. ”

"At the same time, we are more capable of choosing, what kind of person to be, or what kind of corpse demon to be, even if it kills people, even if it eats people, in fact, there are good and bad starting points. ”

"Of course, I'm a corpse demon that feeds on humans after all, so it might be a bit of a quibble to say this, but I just want to tell you, Li Yang...... Good and evil, right and wrong, are not determined by who we are, but by our adherence to principles, but by our place!"

As he spoke, Yu Tianchen pressed his hand on my heart, and at that moment, my heart was trembling, and so was my body, as if I understood the meaning of his words, and it seemed that I saw the way forward.

Actually, the sheep doesn't have to die alone, if it is smarter, maybe it can become a sheepdog, of course, the sheep still can't accept it, still afraid of it, but at least, it can accept itself.
